Walking out of the shadow between the cliffs was a young man in a silver robe.
Like Ding Ning, he didn't have any obvious scars, and even the silver robe on his body looked new, without any cracks.
However, for some reason, this young man looked even more tired and weak than Xu Lianhua.
The moment he looked up and saw the dazzling sunlight, the boy's body swayed a few times, as if he didn't even want to lift his feet, and wanted to sit down directly on the ground.
But there were clear footsteps on the stone path between the cliffs behind him.
The silver-robed young man took a deep breath, not wanting to be seen as too weak, so he stiffly straightened his body and turned towards the cliff he had just stepped out of.
In the dim light and shadow, a few wisps of blood-like strange colors suddenly floated up.
The silver-robed boy's brows formed a sharp shape. He suspected that he had exhausted his energy so much that he had a problem with his perception.
After a few breaths of time, as the sound of footsteps approached, a thin figure appeared in his sight.
"Gu Xichun?"
The pupils of the silver-robed boy shrank slightly, and he made a sound unexpectedly.
Because he didn't want to appear too weak, the voice of the silver-robed boy was louder than before. It was heard far away in this quiet valley, and Zhang Yi and Xu Lianhua, who were quietly treating their wounds, could hear clearly.
"Gu Xichun?"
Xu Lianhua frowned. This name is not unfamiliar to all the young practitioners in Changling, and Xu Lianhua couldn't figure out why a student in Yingshan Sword Grotto whose true essence cultivation was only the top-rank of the third realm would be ranked third in the talent book. He even overwhelmed Dugu Bai from Dugu Hou's Mansion who everyone thought would be ranked first.
"It's Yixin."
Zhang Yi glanced at Xu Lianhua, a little surprised, then he felt that Xu Lianhua might have misunderstood, and immediately added: "The person who spoke is Yi Xin from Xinjianzong."
"Easy heart?"
At this moment, such a voice sounded from the other end of the shed, from the exit of the cliff.
"Are you familiar with Yi Xin?" Xu Lianhua looked at Zhang Yi strangely and asked softly.
Gu Xichun is only a rising star in Changling, and Xu Lianhua and him naturally don't have much contact with each other. As for Yi Xin, although he is famous, the Xinjian Sect is a sect that focuses on meditation, and he is afraid that his disciples will get caught up in fireworks. , and never released from the courtyard at all, so although Xu Lianhua knew Yi Xin, they didn't have much contact with each other.
Zhang Yi shyly said: "I don't know him very well, it's just that when my junior brother Ding Ning was forced to fight Zhou Xinyi when the Book of Talents was first published, Yi Xin said a lot of justice, so I remembered it he."
Xu Lianhua was slightly stunned, "Just said a few words, and you remembered his voice, you have a good memory."
Zhang Yi was even more embarrassed, and said, "Where, where."
Xu Lianhua frowned, and couldn't help but said: "Although I know you are only modest, you should not be modest in the future, otherwise people who don't know your temperament will think you are hypocritical."
Zhang Yi was stunned.
The two of them were unfamiliar with Gu Xichun and Yi Xin, even Zhang Yi didn't want to take the initiative to say hello because of Ding Ning's relationship with Gu Xichun, so they were talking in low voices.
"I have heard for a long time that the Nianjian of Xinjianzong is very unique. Even if you have not reached the fifth level, you can still control the flying sword and make the sword energy like a living thing. Although you have never seen it with your own eyes, the rumors must be true, otherwise Brother Yi would not Pass this pass with the first name." At this moment, the voice from the exit of the cliff sounded again, and it was clearly heard in their ears.
Hearing such a voice, Xu Lianhua was slightly taken aback, then reacted immediately, and said with a slight mockery: "Zhang Yi, when you saw no one in the shed, you thought we were the last to come out, but this Gu Xichun is conceited. Seeing the shed There is no one inside, but he thinks that no one has passed the level before him and Yi Xin."
Zhang Yi nodded, and said softly, "Gu Xichun is indeed somewhat conceited."
At this time, the person who spoke out in front of Yi Xin was naturally Gu Xichun.
Compared with the beginning of the sword meeting, Gu Xichun's description didn't seem to have changed at all, he didn't see any wounds on his body, and even the breath on his body was extremely stable, but the few streaks of blood in the corners of his eyes were thicker.
Seeing Gu Xichun who could even be described as calm and leisurely, Yi Xin felt even more weird in her heart.
"Although the Nianjian of my Xinjianzong is famous, in comparison, the sword scriptures of your Yingshan Sword Cave are probably more subtle." After a while of silence, Yi Xin said slowly.
Gu Xichun smiled indifferently, but turned around, looked at the mountain road when he came, "No matter what, it's not that person's first name."
Of course, Yi Xin knew that the person Gu Xichun was talking about was Ding Ning, who won the first place in a row before, but he had no intention of targeting Ding Ning, and at this time he was extremely exhausted, so he didn't want to answer for a while.
At this moment, Gu Xichun's smile quickly faded away.
Because there were footsteps on the cliff behind him again.
His eyes became cold.
He was a little worried that Ding Ning would appear again at this time, but even if Ding Ning did appear at this time, he would already be behind him.
However, his pupils began to shrink violently again, and an unbelievable look quickly appeared on his face.
What appeared in his line of sight was a tall girl.
Among the students who participated in the sword meeting, the number of women was far less than that of men, and this girl who walked out shocked Gu Xichun more than all the other women.
If Zhang Yi, who was separated by several sheds, could see the girl walking out at this time, she would definitely not believe her eyes.
Because the girl who walked out at this time turned out to be Xie Rou.
Although Xie Rou is very famous in Changling and Guanzhong, it is because she is the eldest daughter of the Xie family in Guanzhong, and she is involved in managing many businesses of the Xie family in Guanzhong, not because of her cultivation.
Gu Xichun never thought that she would be able to pass through that sea of thorns, let alone that she would appear so quickly.
Xie Rou didn't walk fast, and seemed extremely strenuous.
However, Gu Xichun's face was even more rigid, because he saw that Xie Rou was not injured at all.
His eyes fell on Xie Rou's hands.
Then his gaze became even more incredulous.
A long sword that was the same as the Daqin black sword was held by Xie Rou like a crutch, but Xie Rou did not see any other matching swords on her body.
"I heard what you just said."
At this moment, Xie Rou had already stepped out of the shadow between the cliffs and walked into the sunlight. She glanced at the empty hut, then looked at Gu Xichun with somewhat sad and angry eyes, and then Said: "But even if he doesn't pass this level, you are still not as good as him."
Gu Xichun's brows were raised slowly, his complexion gradually turned cold.
He couldn't help thinking of Xie Changsheng.
Xie Changsheng used to like to talk and mock him the most.
But that was before.
It was possible before, but it does not mean that it is possible now.
"I don't understand what you mean." So he shook his head indifferently and said to Xie Rou.
Thinking of the consequences of Ding Ning's failure to pass through the sea of thorns and failure to win the sword meeting, Xie Rou felt even more sad. She gritted her teeth and was about to speak again, but Gu Xichun was ahead of her.
"A practitioner's ability is reflected in many aspects. If you insist that I am inferior to him in some aspects, I have nothing to say."
The corner of Gu Xichun's mouth showed a hint of sarcasm: "If you say that I lagged behind him in the first few levels, I have nothing to say, but the Sword Club only cares about the final result. No matter how bright a shooting star is, it is just a shooting star. "
Xie Rou's body trembled unconsciously.
Ding Ning's figure was no longer in her line of sight, her mood was already in turmoil, and she didn't know what words to use to refute Gu Xichun's ridicule.
The conversation between Gu Xichun and Xie Rou was clearly heard behind the shed in the distance.
Looking at Zhang Yi who wanted to speak out but seemed a little hesitant, Xu Lianhua couldn't help but sneered contemptuously: "Zhang Yi, are you deaf? You can't bear it until now, you have to wait until Xie Rou can't bear it anymore." Did you just say that Ding Ning was here long ago after fighting him?"
Hearing Xu Lianhua's words, Zhang Yi, who was still thinking about being polite before, suddenly woke up.
He took a breath and then made a sound.
However, at this moment, there was a muffled sound in the silent shed, as if someone was knocking on the corner of the wall.
Gu Xichun, Yi Xin, and Xie Rou's bodies trembled at the same time, and they all subconsciously turned around to look into the shed.
Zhang Yi and Xu Lianhua were also stunned at the same time, their eyes were full of unbelievable light, could there be someone else in this shed
A crimson shadow appeared in the eyes of Gu Xichun and the others.
Xie Rou was stunned.
Yi Xin was also taken aback.
Gu Xichun's slightly stiff face softened, "So it's..."
"Why is there such a Zerg here!"
However, at this moment, a burst of exclamation sounded from behind the shed.
"Zhang Yi?"
Xie Rou was stunned for another breath, then came to her senses and yelled out in surprise.
Yi Xin's complexion instantly became exciting.
Gu Xichun's heart suddenly fell to the bottom, and then it was like falling into hell.
"Don't be nervous, this bug is mine."
A familiar voice that chilled his body resounded at this moment.
